This is indeed MeeGo vanilla you could say, but Nokias Harmattan is a bit more than just UI.

Quim gil's response about the pictures:

The MeeGo Handset UX announced by the TSG to go public this month basically consists of the MeeGo Touch Framework and a set of reference applications maintained by the MeeGo project.

The MeeGo based device announced by Nokia to go public on 2H2010 will have the software release codenamed Harmattan and a UX that basically consists of the MeeGo Touch Framework and a set of applications decided by Nokia.

What else can harmattan offer? I'm genuinely interested. For that matter what does HTC sense offer more than just the ui. I never really understood all these ui's from different manufacturers

Dont know about you guys but screenshots that OP posted are not new I've seen them before....


N00b question , for what X stands for? I thought its called UI ( user interface)

also a question for qgil I dont know whether you can answer it now but given the way Nokia acts recently regarding updates will a MeeGo 1.0 running device get update to 1.1 and 1.2 etc ? Or they will release new version every 6 months for a new device?

Thanks

"UX" is User Experience.

Just like XP was just a sideways smiley expression of using Windows.

It looks like a logic, intuitive follow-up on Maemo 5. Makes me curious!

Well, that seems to be all the rage these days. Device manufacturer don't want to just differentiate themselves by hardware (e.g. 5MP camera vs. 3MP, etc.). They want to slap some custom apps on the OS base (Facebook, Twitter, app launcher, etc.). Seems like everyone's doing that in the Android world, and MeeGo is also very much geared toward this model.

Seems clean and uncluttered. Almost Microsoft Metro (Zune, MetroTwit, WinMo 7) like - which... to me is a good thing.
